Imagine your on a space shuttle, your floating, your vibing, but you get a question in your head “What does space sound like?” So you attempt to put your ear next to the window that leads to the void of space and you hear “RUN,COWARD”
I think the worst type of horror game is one that's not a horror game. When it is just a regular game but has a couple of scary moments, because you don't expect it
Subnautica is a pretty good representation of this. It’s not a horror game, but the design of some creatures and environments had scared me more than any horror game.
I love Sinistar's voice. The signature distorted and stilted voice lines of the limited technology coming from something that is clearly hostile and trying to kill you is so perfect
This man scared the bejeebus outta 7 year old me so hard, I didn't even know what he looked like for the longest time because I refused to play that game again
This man scared the bejeebus outta 7 year old me so hard, I didn't even know what he looked like for the longest time because I refused to play that game again. I thought he was a Lion for up until a few years
I think the scariest aspect is how the roar is literally just the voice actor letting out an ear-raping scream into the mic. Can't imagine what that'd sound like through its original setup. Something about lower quality sound feedback that gives you chills.

I’ve been working with someone on making an N64 styled Sinistar game. He’ll still be the iconic sinistar, but with a new Va Dw, he’ll still sound insane
The worst thing about that game is that it feels like they stuck the physics on double-speed. You have to get an adrenaline rush just to keep up with the frantic pace and that leaves you completely wired for that voice to jump-scare you with ease.
Worked too. Especially when the speakers were right above your ears, had excellent base, and the entire console vibrated and rumbled. Scarred fkoutame first time it howled at me!
I read this comment before I got that part. I also watch RUclips on 1.75x speed... so I read this comment thinking something scary was gonna happen, and I change it back to normal speed... Then I see its an ad, and I also fast forward as fast as humanly possible, and now we're up to 2x speed to make up for the time I lost (even though it was about 6 seconds...)

But how? It looks like he has made many videos with the mindset of quality = quantity (I mean that he has made many videos with also remembering about quality)
I think what makes it so scary and even more of a cosmic horror is that not matter how many times you defeat Sinistar he keeps coming back and the fact that he’s a constantly looming being. You’re only temporarily delaying the inevitable, no matter how much you fight it’s ultimately pointless.
I think it’s so rare to find good horror content like this on RUclips. I don’t comment often, but I love your work so much I felt like I needed to tell you how much I love the work you’ve done!
This is, in my opinion, you're best video yet. Instead of just talking about a creepypasta, rom hack, or urban legend. You're talking about an actual arcade game and how scary the presentation is. Good job man!
I remember playing this game for the first time on a Williams arcade collection on my Sega Genesis... I was genuinely surprised to hear an angry robot fox demon head calling me a coward. I really did feel like a coward, especially after I turned off the console.
Jesus Christ, one of my favorite arcade games that I could barely play cuz it constantly scared the FUCK out of me, barely has any videos about it on RUclips and suddenly Billy makes a video on it. You’re a godsend, sir.
0:08 shoutout to that banjo kazooie demo that traumatized me because I got stuck in a corner and after a while “creepy” music would play. I was the kinda kid that skipped Halloween specials because they scared me, so I highly doubt it was actually creepy.
When this game wasn't being played, every once in a while out of nowhere it would blast out at high volume, "BEWARE! I LIVE!". Used to scare the crap out of me as a little kid.
When i was 7 - 9 i went to a daycare center, they had a tiny arcade where i spent most of my time playing with the other kids their, i do remember them having that one game on the arcade and i do remember never beating that wretched face, when it killed me i remember it made a laughing sound o_o btw this was back in 2012 - 2014
Sort of sounds like carnevil, I always liked that floating creepy jester head saying his riddles, then you starts shooting your way through zombies, crazy peaple and other horror creatures
Yeah. I had a little arcade at my grandma's house. And I saw that game. I was really scared of it but now I just kind of like it. It's really fun wants to know how to actually beat it
A few years back, my dad got an arcade machine that has about 20 different classic arcade games on it-Sinistar was one of them. I decided to play it because I thought it looked cool by the picture, but that first moment Sinistar _spoke_ I actually jumped. None of the other arcade games on that system had spoken dialogue so I felt really caught off guard.
Oh my god dude, I remember playing this game on one of those "Williams Arcades Greatest Hits" discs on the PS1 when I was like 4 years old (which was like in 2006 or so), and this game, while I liked it, it creeped the hell out of me. My parents thought the game was just silly (as they used to be gamers), which made me think I was the only one in the world who thought it was spooky. Glad I wasn't alone lol.
I played it in 1985 in an arcade. I’ll never forget it. I had no idea that arcade machines could speak. It was honestly a nasty shock when *I LIVE* boomed out of the screen.
I am so GIDDY that you did a video about Sinistar!!! It ALWAYS gets left out of every "scariest video game moments" lists/compilations. I first played Sinistar on one of the Arcade Classics games for the original Xbox. Needless to say I had to have a nightlight on for the next few nights.
Man, the fact that audio wasn't as developed back then made Sinistar's roar even scarier. It's not as scary to me as it would be to a child, but I can definitely understand why this would be so horrifying to someone younger such as a child.
I really like the immersion your videos put off as if you're actually studying a Creature or something. Even ones as goofy as video game stuff makes me feel like something sinister is going on, it's a nice Aspect of your channel
I've taken conscious effort to, over the course of almost 4 decades, hone my Sinistar voice and growls. Never know when you might have to scare the piss out of some attacker in the dark.
Surprised that this has not been made into a feature length film yet...would certainly make a great one. Imagining Sinistar itself could be like 100 miles in diameter...and go from there...
God knows how much money I put into playing this game when I was about 12 -14 in the 80's at my local arcade. No one else seemed to play it apart from myself and a couple of friends. Maybe it was that scary lol . Fond memories, great video, thanks.
OH MY GOSH I REMEMBER PLAYING THIS GAME! My dad and I would have Father-Daughter Bonding Time by going to this retro arcade place for the evening and getting pizza from a nearby parlor! I remember loving this game so much and I *almost* broke the arcade's local high score for the month but was just short by a few hundred points!
An interesting thought: back before Zechariah 13:2 was fulfilled and demons really were around, it seems like the most they could do is perhaps a bit of ventriloquism out of idols, never able to make them move. I wonder, once Revelation 20:7 comes to pass and Satan and, presumably, the rest of the demons return, perhaps they will be able to do more with electronics than they ever could with unmovable brittle stone. Watching for such things may genuinely be a way to tell when they've returned. Perhaps that's why all of us here are so interested in things like this: deep down we instinctively long for the return of spirits to the world. We feel satisfied by these echos of it, like people who had never seen the sky would nevertheless feel energized by blue light.
Had to Like and Sub. Watching gameplay was so retro nostalgic. Gasp! The adrenaline RUSH that courses thru your veins when you hear that thundering announcement; I Hunger, Run Run Coward!! I played the original a LOT, found it very hard to beat as the levels increased. Found the upgraded PC version called Sinistar Unleashed back in '97 and it was a great treat to be playing newer graphics in a near 3D eviro. The 3D -ish 360 degrees game play was fantastic. Mining for crystals, taking out turrents and the mutli-Styled atrocities that led top Lion-ish Sinistar in level 23 was Riveting similar game play of Descent 1-3 had me stoked. Doesn't work on my 64 Bit Windows 10 WHAAA
Yes! Now I know I'm not the only one who remembers this game, and how scary it was for me as a kid! One crucial detail was left out in this video however: Sinister would ROAR at you with ear splitting volume!
YES!!! Finally some love for Sinistar. Never got to play it in the "cabinet" style, but it still scared the sheeeet outta me. One the most memorable games from that time, for me anyways. BEWARE I LIVE! RUN, COWARD! Haunted my teenage dreams, hahaha.
I also was one of those teen to experience all of these games in game rooms. And Sinistar was my all time favorite! I hate it never got as popular as some other games. But, I'm still happy it's known. It was thrilling, fun and yes scary. Not nightmarish scary but still exciting. Again, great game!!! Cool tribute video as well. Great editing!
I remember playing this on the N64 (part of a game cartridge containing several old arcade games,) I would usually always play it with a friend of mine, and I can agree on how scary it was, but my and my friend always turned this horror into laughter by consecutively freaking out and laughing any time Sinistar would come on screen.
Dude, I remember this game! I had an arcade mix disc for my Dreamcast that had Sinistar. I was like 10 years old, and the first time that scary face rushed across the screen ROARING, I legit started crying, it scared me so bad. Doesn't help that the game has no music. Just the silence of space.
@@BillyStyler Absolutely. Of course, my experience was in front of a simple tv. I can only imagine how much more terrifying it must have been sitting inside the actual game machine with the surround sound.
when i was young the only game that terrified me was zelda windwaker.....why you will say? your in a fkin ocean in the middle of fkin nowhere and every time i saw a monster in the ocean or tornado i was fkin scared , the fact that you never knew wtf was that
I remember being little and playing Sinistar at a local arcade and all it did was annoy me. Which is funny, because Unicron from the original Transformers movie gave me my first existential crisis ever at about the same time.
Sinistar was one of my favorite arcade games growing up! I sucked at it back then I suck at it now! Lol But I did love to play it. And I remember as a very young kid passing by some of the darkened arcades in malls and hearing cinestar's voice.... It scared me enough that I was afraid to go in the arcades until I was older! I think this might have just been the best Sinistar review and commentary I've seen on RUclips! I really think the creator has captured that eerie feeling that many of us remember from this game.
Great video Billy. Loved every second of it, never head of sinister until watching this. Glad I was able to learn about a game that came out back then that tbh does have a very creepy vibe too it. P. S that sponser segment was so slick and sweet. Nice job
I am 37 now and remember arcades being a big part of my childhood. It's where my dad and I would go together when walking downtown to bond together. It was in the early 1990's so def the golden age for me, I spent many birthday parties with my mom in arcades with tons of friends. Get $20-30 each in quarters to run around and play any games we wanted without any people to distract us. Man those were good times.
Awesome, thanks! I am 56 and still walk around with that voice in my head. My favorite is 'I HUNGER.' For years, I have always walked around and just blurted that out, just to be me.

But, I'm still happy it's known. It was thrilling, fun and yes scary. Not nightmarish scary but still exciting. Again, great game!!! Cool tribute video as well. Great editing!
To me Sinistar’s design looks really cool who agrees?
I def agree.
I remember playing this on the N64 (part of a game cartridge containing several old arcade games,) I would usually always play it with a friend of mine, and I can agree on how scary it was, but my and my friend always turned this horror into laughter by consecutively freaking out and laughing any time Sinistar would come on screen.
Jeez, your vids are already scarier than stories themselves.
Dude, I remember this game! I had an arcade mix disc for my Dreamcast that had Sinistar. I was like 10 years old, and the first time that scary face rushed across the screen ROARING, I legit started crying, it scared me so bad. Doesn't help that the game has no music. Just the silence of space.
It's very eerie, isn't it?
@@BillyStyler Absolutely. Of course, my experience was in front of a simple tv. I can only imagine how much more terrifying it must have been sitting inside the actual game machine with the surround sound.
when i was young the only game that terrified me was zelda windwaker.....why you will say? your in a fkin ocean in the middle of fkin nowhere and every time i saw a monster in the ocean or tornado i was fkin scared , the fact that you never knew wtf was that
you have thalassophobia
I remember being little and playing Sinistar at a local arcade and all it did was annoy me. Which is funny, because Unicron from the original Transformers movie gave me my first existential crisis ever at about the same time.
"Maybe I'm looking too deep into a simple arcade game."
Yup.
THAT INTRODUCTION, that really gave me a cheesy slasher movie vibe. I love that
It's been 5 months... •~• I miss Billy
This video was awesome! The game and its aesthetics mesh so well with each other.
When I was a kid, I was scared of the Zuma monster in the end of the path
i loved that game when it was released as a disc on xbox 360 with peggle and pvz og
The scene starting at 12:22 is so damn cool and badass, I still can't stop watching it
Sup Billy Styler, I just wanted to tell you, You inspired me into making videos, I just wanted to say that so you know
Love these videos please never stop making these type of videos
Billy styler: I recomend to watch color out of space
*Nick cage intensifies*
Sinistar was one of my favorite arcade games growing up!
I sucked at it back then I suck at it now! Lol
But I did love to play it.
And I remember as a very young kid passing by some of the darkened arcades in malls and hearing cinestar's voice.... It scared me enough that I was afraid to go in the arcades until I was older!
I think this might have just been the best Sinistar review and commentary I've seen on RUclips!
I really think the creator has captured that eerie feeling that many of us remember from this game.
I have nothing funny or clever to say, so here's a comment for the algorithm. 👍
I used to play this at my daycare when I was little. They had an arcade cabinet and this game was the one I'd always play.
Great video Billy. Loved every second of it, never head of sinister until watching this. Glad I was able to learn about a game that came out back then that tbh does have a very creepy vibe too it. P. S that sponser segment was so slick and sweet. Nice job
Ah, cheers! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Am I the only person who thinks Sinistar is kind of adorable
It can be.....
Yeah. Yeah, you probably are.
Sinistar, what a guy. :)
Really good stuff. Always getting better and better.
Always weird to think that our version of "what older people were scared of as kids" involves video games of all things
I am 37 now and remember arcades being a big part of my childhood. It's where my dad and I would go together when walking downtown to bond together. It was in the early 1990's so def the golden age for me, I spent many birthday parties with my mom in arcades with tons of friends. Get $20-30 each in quarters to run around and play any games we wanted without any people to distract us. Man those were good times.
This game still gives me chills! Your voice is the perfect combo to introduce this to the next generation. 👍🔥
Awesome, thanks! I am 56 and still walk around with that voice in my head. My favorite is 'I HUNGER.' For years, I have always walked around and just blurted that out, just to be me.
